7. Troubleshooting & Decision FAQ (Addressing Buyer Doubts)

A: It has a bold, earthy taste with mild astringency, but it is not overwhelmingly bitter like pure bitter melon or gentian.

• Q: Can I drink this tea if I take prescription medications?

A: Individuals currently taking prescription blood sugar or diabetes medications must consult their physician prior to use to monitor their regimen responsibly.

• Q: Can I drink it on an empty stomach?

A: Most people find it most beneficial and enjoyable consumed 15–30 minutes following a meal.
